Looking at Danny's lifeless body, David's expression remained devoid of sympathy, and the others also looked coldly at Danny's corpse, filled with disdain. While they might not fully understand why Danny had turned into this, they knew that anyone who opposed David would et a similar fate – becoming a lifeless body.
"That's great! Finally got rid of this traitor!" Arnold clenched his fist and exclaid excitedly. At the sa ti, he glanced at Monica, thinking his words might provoke her displeasure. However, when he saw her expressionless face, he instantly felt relieved.
Monica's feelings at this mont mirrored those of the others. The mont Danny had expelled her from the squad, she knew that she would beco his enemy. More importantly, she had witnessed Abraham's death. Even now, the mory of Abraham's death filled her heart with imnse sorrow. However, the mastermind behind his death had been dealt with by David, which brought her so solace. She understood that Danny had brought this upon himself, and no one could save him, let alone forgive him.
This reminded Monica of the note Abraham had left for her, deepening her sense of nostalgia for him.
David also cast a brief glance at Monica, her cold expression not eliciting a response from him. He knew that he had given Monica and Abraham the best gift. As Danny's life ended, the secondary red light in the sky suddenly dimd.
The fissure that had been threatening to open, the one that sought to initiate a new calamity, vanished before everyone's eyes. Evidently, the secondary red light had vanished from the post-apocalyptic world along with Danny's death. The sun reappeared in the sky, though its rays cast an especially desolate pallor upon the barren wasteland.
David raised his head to survey the desolate world before him, his brow slightly furrowed. He hadn't anticipated the existence of such a desolate world beyond the apocalypse. The dangers here seed even greater than those in the outside world. Occasionally, in his peripheral vision, he spotted strange zombies and humans emitting sinister auras. They stood in the distance, observing David, resembling predators eyeing their long-awaited prey.
David stared back at them with an intense gaze, imdiately discerning that these individuals weren't to be underestimated. He promptly escorted Sally out of the area.
"You all should leave first," David instructed Fatso and Arnold, turning around and reentering the desolate world. He felt that everything here was bizarre, and an unexpected curiosity arose within him.
"It's too dangerous here. We can co back once we've figured out what's going on," Duane expressed his concern to David. He had never stepped into the desolate world due to the overwhelming sinister aura within it. Just inhaling the air felt like a thousand knives slashing at his throat.
If David hadn't created a void space around Sally in ti, effectively isolating the desolate world from her, she would have long lost consciousness. Hearing Duane's words, David gave a faint smile.
"You're right. We need to understand everything here. You all should head back. I won't venture deep into the desolate world."
With those words, David turned and left once again. Duane reluctantly nodded, but considering David's strength, he felt relieved. Fatso had already been convinced by David's might, so after hearing his words, he didn't hesitate to lead everyone out of the courtyard. He even invited Shirley to visit their base.
Sally watched David's departing figure and silently prayed for his safety. Soon, everyone had left the courtyard.
In the desolate world, only David remained amidst various strange creatures. A black insect with wings flew towards David, but he swiftly slapped it to the ground. The black insect struggled briefly before flipping over and crawling away in agony.
Approaching Danny's corpse, the system's voice suddenly rang in David's ears:
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing the apocalypse's main antagonist, Danny! ]
[Congratulations to the host for leveling up to level eleven! ]
[Congratulations to the host for acquiring ten thousand high-grade crystals! ]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a new supernatural ability—Extraction! ]
The system's consecutive announcents continued to sound in David's ears. He nodded in surprise. He hadn't expected to receive so many rewards for killing Danny.
As he pondered, an intangible force began to gather within him. Unlike the tenth-level power he had before, this force surged more strongly, like turbulent waves rolling within him.
After all, David had now broken through the tenth-level barrier, and both his strength and aura had undergone significant qualitative changes compared to before. anwhile, he turned his attention to the newly acquired supernatural ability, "Extraction."
"What is this ability?" David asked with so confusion.
[Ding! The host can use this ability to extract from all targets, obtaining items based on the target of extraction.]
Listening to the system's slightly vague explanation, David pondered for a mont and understood its aning. Essentially, this ability allowed him to unexpectedly gain items by extracting from various objects.
Curious, David looked at a piece of broken stone under his foot. He extended his palm over it and softly said, "Extract!"
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for extracting a primary core! ]
[Congratulations to the host for triggering a hundredfold critical hit, obtaining one hundred primary cores! ]
"Hmm? Primary core?" Hearing the na, David was montarily puzzled. Before he could think further, a shining circular object appeared before his eyes, vanishing in an instant as it entered his system's inventory. This led David to speculate that the core was probably similar in function to crystals, but relevant to this wasteland world.
David then aid his palm at a withered tree nearby.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for extracting a piece of hundred-year wood! ]
[Congratulations to the host for triggering a hundredfold critical hit, obtaining one hundred pieces of hundred-year wood! ]
This situation left David sowhat amused and exasperated. It seed his speculation was accurate; this ability could indeed yield "unexpected" rewards. Choosing not to test it further, he glanced into the depths of the desolate world. There, an ominous aura perated the air, and figures darted around.
Nurous hostile energies assaulted him, causing David to beco cautious involuntarily. He knew that before understanding the rules here, he couldn't rashly venture deeper. This place was vastly different from the apocalypse; he needed to grasp all its laws before stepping foot within.
Simultaneously, David was aware that he had beco a unique entity within the apocalypse, and now, he was about to embark on a new journey,the wasteland world.
